FO - Doll for my sister
This is a little clown doll I finished for my sister in June for her birthday. She is a professional clown so I thought she'd get a kick out it it. The hardest part of this was knitting the "hair" on him. The pattern comes from a book called "Knitted Toys" by Jean Greenhowe, Page 29, called Cuddly Clown.
